ADDITIONAL RESISTANCE AND SEAKEEPING MODEL TESTS OF A U.S. COAST GUARD 120 FT NOTIONAL WPB DESIGN; FINAL REPT

The research results presented in this report are concerned with the extension of the resistance and seakeeping performance of the 120 FT WPB design to include parametric variations in LCG (36%, 38% and 42% LBP forward of transom) and significant wave height (2.9, 4.6 and 20.7 feet) in the speed range of 10 to 35 knots. Planing boat motions, Planing boat performance, WPB Notional hulls, Planing hulls.
